    Afternoon all...replacement Taxi is working ok....DH worked it last night and did ok £150 and I've worked this morning £75...so not too bad...it went really quiet at lunch time so am home now.DH will be out at tea time.So at least we will have a fair amount towards the bills on monday.Nowhere near enough but better than not getting out there.
    I hope it's busy tonight and tomorrow.Hope everyone is well today and managing to chill out.I have the settlement figure from Vauxhall here for the finance on the car and will wait to see if the solicitor wants it on monday...
    Just done my checks for surveys etc....none there ...checked my banking etc...nothing debt busting going on here at the moment but am living out of the freezers/cupboards and trying not to do any shopping.
    I'm glad I did that focus group the other day as that is the money that I used for DH dentist bill the other day.
    Hope you're all having a good day xxx

    WOW..thanks you two and some good recipes there...I love houmous...I am feeling a bit better I think I'm over most of the shock now.I just want to be out there earning and paying my bills/debt busting.Think I have to get myself over to o/s board as I seriously need to cut our shopping bill down.Problem being I will have to give up my "organic principles"....every single thing is organic in our house but this is costing a fortune now..perhaps I will have to give it up for a few years until I'm debt and mortgage free...mmmmmmm
  • I go to a lot of farm shops and the markets..i try to be as principled as poss. how about some of the farmshops in the fylde area? i hear there are a lot.I am sure my spuds are from there.
